SECTION 4.  MATTERS RELATING TO ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Item 4.01  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On or about February 5, 2016, Earth Science Tech, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), engaged EisnerAmper LLP ("New Accountant") to audit and review the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 and for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, respectively.  The New Accountant has been engaged for general audit and review services and not because of any particular transaction or accounting principle, or because of any disagreement with the Company's former accountant, Liggett & Webb P.A. (the "Former Accountant").

The Former Accountant's reports on the Company's financial statements during its past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except for a going concern qualification contained in its audit report for the fiscal years ending March 31, 2015 and 2014.  The decision to change accountants was recommended and approved by the Company's Board of Directors.  During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014 through the date hereof, the Company did not have any disagreements with the Former Accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant would have caused them to make reference in connection with their report to the subject of the disagreement.

The Company has furnished Liggett & Webb P.A. with a copy of the disclosures under this Item 4.01 and has requested that the Former Accountant provide a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not they agree with the statements made herein or stating the reasons in which they do not agree.  The letter from the Former Accountant addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1.

(b) On February 5, 2016, the Board of Directors approved the Company's engagement of EisnerAmper LLP as independent auditors for the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company sent a letter to the Former Accountant disengaging their services on February 9, 2016. The New Accountant was engaged for general audit and review services and not because of any particular transaction or accounting principle, or because of any disagreement with the Former Accountant. 

Neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted the New Accountant regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, or (iii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or event identified in response to Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K (there being none).
